We have been left wondering if these procedures can live up to their promise. We wanted to know, “Can a cosmetic procedure offer the results of a facelift without the downtime, side effects or cost traditionally associated with cosmetic surgery?” To gain a better understanding of state-ofthe-art facelift procedures, we spoke with Dr. Adam Summers, one of the region’s leading Board Certified Plastic Surgeons specializing in cosmetic surgery and nationally recognized as the developer of the SMART Facelift. Dr. Summers has been performing minimally invasive facelift and necklift procedures since 1996. In fact, he actually developed the first One Hour Facelift technique that really works. Indeed, he has been quite busy publishing research in prestigious journals, presenting techniques at national meetings, instructing other physicians, and participating in the design of minimally invasive surgical tools What is a One Hour Facelift? How long does the SMART Facelift last? “The One Hour Face & Neck Lift combines the latest advances in non-surgical technology with the safest, most effective minimally invasive suspension techniques.

These techniques achieve the results of a full facelift and neck lift in about an hour while enabling most patients to return to work the day after the procedure. Because this procedure lifts the Skin, Muscle and Adipose (or fat) with Reduced Tension in about an hour, we call it the One Hour SMART Facelift.” “Over the past decade, I have continually enhanced the procedure to provide even longer-lasting results.

This greatly reduces both the risks and costs associated with the procedure. In fact, most patients are able to engage in normal activities such as driving immediately afterward.” Relaxing in the comfort of his elegant office, we had an opportunity to review before and after photos documenting Dr. Summers’ work. The results are simply amazing. Most of the patients look years younger and all of them have significant improvements in their skin. Every patient looks completely natural -- none of them have a “pulledback” or “windswept” appearance.

What is your experience with the no-downtime cosmetic surgery? “In order to gain expertise in minimally invasive cosmetic procedures, a surgeon must perform hundreds of these procedures. Since the 1990’s, I’ve worked on developing long lasting surgical and laser treatments. Now, with over 20 years experience, we are proud to be one of the only practices in the country to have treated thousands of patients with these types of procedures. I personally evaluate each patient and, together, we How much does the One Hour SMART Facelift procedure cost? “Although costs vary from patient to patient, you can expect to spend about half of what you might spend for a typical facelift procedure.
